So, how much can we possibly score in the 1st half before Johnny Manziel comes in?

Well...
Return opening kick-off for TD.
The Aggies muff the ensuing kick and an Owl falls on it in the end zone.
Elapsed time depends upon when it is first touched, and when the ref blows the whistle on the play. Could be very little.
Lather, rinse, repeat - until 30 minutes has passed.
That could add up to a lot of points, and incredible exhaustion for the special teams players.
The Aggies might go through the 12th, 13th, 14th men (ad nauseum).
That's probably the most possible, however improbable.

It's going to be the same Aggies on the field on defense in both halves.

Yes, but that wasn't the question.

It seemed to me the assumption behind the question was that we wouldn't score once JFF was in the game.

I presume the Aggies will score more in the second half than the first. I also assume we will do just about as well in each half. Highest total at 00:00 wins.

Both Aggie teams will be hard to beat, but I see no reason to assume the first half Aggies will be a pushover or the second half Aggies will shut us out.

If that is the way anybody sees this game, I suggest taking Rice and the points in the first half and A$M giving the points in the second half.
